A Bored Lich
"Screw magic, I want to learn how to do cool flips and stuff." Magic is awesome, until you've studied it for centuries. Doevm reincarnates into a human to experience the path of a fighter to its fullest and swears not to rely on magic. There is only one problem, a goddess stands in his way. She pits him against both the hero and the villain for all of eternity. How will he escape this, with magic or his fists? Maybe both? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(Sorry about the spacing. Webnovel doesn't let me use enter) Winner of contest #110. I upload three chapters a week. Each chapter has word count around 1000+.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Link to my discord: https://discord.gg/tHaceja ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------While I am an experienced writer, I do make mistakes. Don't be afraid to say you don't understand something or point out an error in grammar. I read all comments. There are naturally some things I won't say. For example, if some says there's an inconsistency and I don't address it, it's probably there for a reason.
Room of Jars
Thousands of Undead soldiers rose to their feet. "No." Cerlius said as he glanced down at his skeletal hands. "This can't be happening." He slapped himself but he felt no pain, nor much of anything really. The only true sense of himself was a result of the burning inferno welling up in his hollow chest. It rose and shrunk like faint heartbeats. His small, blackened heart expanded and contracted.
It beat as fast as lightning, and louder than thunder, enough to make his head throb. Cerlius shut his eyes and, when he opened them, he was looking at his own, human face. His chest rose and shrunk. His rapid breaths fogged up the cracked mirrors of his Meditation Chamber. 'My core!' He thought. He forced his breathing to slow, sat back down, and withdrew into his mind, where upon he found a spherical core bigger than before but undamaged. In addition, there was now a black thread leading out of it.
